Top Reasons to Live in Ontario CA

Housing Stats Ontario, like many cities across the nation, experienced a profound housing market crash, but the city is actively lifting the community out of the slump and creating new, attractive options that are available in an appealing price range for new buyers. Though the cost of living is higher than the average, it's still well below many areas of California, including housing costs. The median home sale price in Ontario is $361,782, though the type of house purchased can alter that estimate by a large degree. For instance, in 2009 detached homes had a mean price of $207,155, while townhomes or other attached buildings were $236,420. That means, in Ontario people favor certain elements of owning a townhome or a detached home. This could be due to upkeep or location or other qualities, but it may behoove buyers to consider single family homes if they're on a budget.

School Systems Though Ontario has middling quality education and graduation rates, there are a variety of schooling options for residents. There are five main school districts in Ontario: Chaffey Joint Union High, Chino Valley Unified, Cucamonga Elementary, Mountain View Elementary and Ontario-Montclair Elementary. In total, there are 49 schools in Ontario, 38 public and 11 private. Public high schools number a total of 10.

Local Restaurants Because of the diversity of population in Ontario, there are a surprising number of delectable ethnic eateries, from steak houses to Mexican restaurants to Thai places. Inexpensive eating is a hallmark of the city, where many residents love going out for lunch or dinner on a regular basis.

Local Shopping Most folks head straight to Ontario Mills Mall for their retail therapy needs. The mall boasts over 200 stores, many of which are outlets where prices are bargain basement. In addition to clothing and accessory stores, there are also restaurants, a comedy club, a movie theater and a Dave and Buster's arcade. Popular shops include Aldo, American Eagle Outfitters and Forever 21.

Arts and Culture Ontario isn't immediately known for its intellectual culture or artistic pursuits, but there is a selection of entertainments that appeal to more urbane tastes. The Mission Tiki Drive-In is one of the few remaining drive-in theaters in America. It has an expanded snack bar that offers favorites as well as pizza, Mexican food and burgers. Music lovers enjoy Jazz Cafe, which is a bar and restaurant with live jazz, blues and southern music. The Dinner Detective is a chance for individuals to get involved in performance art over supper, as it's a mystery dinner club. Covert is a more subdued, daytime option. It's an art gallery and skate shop featuring local artists' work, and it's located near the jazz club.
